IOWA BIBLE INSTITUTE
A Ministry of Heartland Baptist Church

The Iowa Bible Institute finds its goal summed up in Ephesians 4:12 which says, "For the perfecting fo the saints, for the work fo the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ". The institute provides classes on basic Christian doctrines and issues. This institute is designed for those who just want to learn more about the Bible by taking one class as well as those who want to receive a one year Bible certificate. Our classes are open to anyone whether they are from HBC or not. We hope that, besides training those in our church, that the Lord might use this institute to reach out to those seeking the truth. Our classes are not accredited and not transferable to any other educational institution. Our goal is not to take the place of formal Bible college and Seminary training, but rather to offer a program for those who want to become better servants in their local church.
